Getting a pool!

After months of deciding and designing we have finally started the building process of our pool! It is amazing to watch the process. I am used to someone digging a huge hole in the ground then dropping in a fiber glass pool and bam you are done. I guess times have changed, our maybe it is because we are getting as gunite pool and that is the difference. It is a much bigger process than I ever imagined. Here are some pictures to help you understand what I am talking about. It is so cool!!

Dig day! This was a very exciting day for us and the kids enjoyed watching.


The hole!


Skylar thought this was the coolest dirt hole ever.


She played for three hours in it. LOVED it!


Next step.. Spray it with concrete.


View from the shallow in.


Next step...re-bar or as Sky calls them, "greasy sticks". The build a cage for the pool with all of that re-bar.


Pretty cool looking.


Next step..concrete again.


Spraying the concrete, it is very neat to watch.


Smoothing it out after they spray it.
